Labor Day already?

I know the kids are going back to school which is a sign that summer is over, but I didn't realize how soon Labor Day was coming! We were going to go to the beach and stay overnight, but when my husband went to book it, they wouldn't take our reservation unless we booked the entire weekend which we didn't want to do. The beach is always crowded anyway on holidays like Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Labor Day. We think we will try the following weekend. With our luck, there will be a hurricane that weekend!
